I'm concerned that every time I upload any picture here to Danbooru some of them get approved but others don't
I completely understand that this post didn't got approved because it ran out of time post #2166667
however what i do not understand is why this picture is not even liked by the moderators even though i did followed the following procedures before uploading it? post #2767379
It keeps me worried about this and will make me question whether is a good idea to post pictures here on Danbooru
Following "procedures" has no bearing on whether an image gets approved or not, or whether an image is liked or not. The first one didn't run out of time, it is just not a good image. Shading is mediocre, with the artist displaying some working knowledge of light sources but failing to execute it properly with shadows that use too sharp a brush and make very sharp angles. The anatomy is more suited to chibi, with its enormous head, and the left arm is outrageously long based on the visible angle of the protruding hand. Background is a gradient, which is fairly common, but it should be subtle, and should not use black unless it is greyscale or uses a similarly dark value for the other end of the gradient. The linework is, like the shading, shoddy, with lots of sharp angles made on parts that would be better served with a single stroke of a tablet stylus.
While the second image is neither bad nor good, the artist made some pretty bad choices on composition. Composing an entire image using similar shades of red and pink? There is very little visual contrast, which results in the image feeling cluttered, because the eye is trying to track multiple things at the same time unconsciously.
